air rifle seals?
G'day all,

about 1990ish, my dad and i bought a sharps innova air rifle in .177 for a christmas present.

it's been pretty well looked after, but think it's time for a "birthday"


can anyone suggest if or how the seals can be replaced, being as old as it is, a lot of gunshops give a healthy blank look and a scratch of the head, but not a lot of help.

can anyone give any advice?

Maybe someone at one of the air gun sights might be more of a help.

try a light oil on the seals and often times they come back to life.
